Re: Indesit IS60V tumbledrier cutting out
iadom wrote:Cheapest you could find. ❓
I have just Googled that part number, apart4u lists it at £38.76 😯
Four or five hits lower down and Mytub have it for just under £16.00.
Actual list price from Indesit ex vat is £8.50. :rolls:
The power of the internet in all its painful glory. 😥You could always have asked us first, perhaps you will next time. 😉
good point – I ddn’t want to bother you’s when I could find it myself but perhaps I should have!

Re: Indesit IS60V tumbledrier cutting out
update on this:
I sourced the relay pcb board from apart4u. It took ages to arrive though, I think about 1½ to 2 weeks according to my brother but it was the cheapest I could find.
Fitted easily and machine works perfectly now so job successful!
cheers
TimRe: Changing door seal on Servis M9309 washer dryer
Done it!
twas a t*at of a job!
I don’t know if Phidom realised it was a washer dryer.Anyway I did the hot air inlet first – bit of a faf lining up the metal blower duct, the door seal protrusion and the black funnel that goes in between them. I saw that the funnel had been glued before so i slapped a bit of Debor on both inside and outside of it where it meets the metal and the door seal.
Good advice about holding back the drum but I actually needed an extra pair of hands at the front, trying to get it on blinking tub edge esp behind the air inlet while keeping the (loosened of course) clamp band from jumping out of position. Solution was to chock the drum back with some wood blocks so all hands available at front!!
Drain pipe tricky to get in the hole in the tub but went in with a satisfactory pop when it did.
Front body lip seal was comparatively a doddle although I cut my finger rubbing round the metal edge to clean up first
Anyway job successful. Full wash done with test paper underneath bone dry!
thanks again for advice 🙂

OK thanks for some superb answers guys!

Re: Induction Motors
thanks for answers guys
so does my machine have a single phase motor then? I assumed the little module/capacitor combo made a 3 phase supply for it from the domestic mains.
Motor is 512005704 (made in Romania, with the big pulley on the end driving a basic v belt)

Re: Hoover softwave a0123 1200 spin, bearings change????
stin74 wrote:drum removal etc ?
to change bearings I think it is at least a drum removal on most machines but possibly up to a complete stripdown depending on the model.
BUT have you considered a suspension problem or loose concrete block first if it is banging rather than rumbling?

I think you mean there is a 2006 edition of the washing machine manual. The dryer one was last published 1999.
imo they could easily be combined as there is a huge overlap in the books

A negative temperature coefficient thermistor.
Hi I meant
‘which of the general methods (that I quoted from Haynes book) is it?’,
not ‘what was the actual sensor used?’
but I presume since you say its a thermistor that it will be the middle method “Thermostats on inlet/outlet giving comparitive temp diff readings to microprocessor which decides when to turn off heaters/drying programme “cheers
TimRe: Servis M9303 washer drier thermostats on drier duct
Hi I still hope forum members can help me thrash this out:
why so many stats if its just simply a brainless timer that switches off after an elapsed time, why any more than the TOC with the red button?
I can only think that maybe 1 extra stat cycles heater on and off to keep hot air input to a certain desired temp (albeit keeping going when clothes bone dry but timer not finished)
BTW I do realise that there are 2 heat settings but they are produced by the 2 separately wired elements surely.NB it happens to be exactly the same as the layout in Haynes but Graham hasn’t labelled the stat just before the inlet to the door boot – frustrating!

Re: Indesit IS60V tumbledrier cutting out
Hi
thanks for this advice, but is that part no an actual pcb board (which will presumably just swap out with spade terminals (like my AR4 900 motor module on my Servis M9303) or does this number refer to the relay itself which would poss? have to be soldered on to the pcb?
thanks
TimRe: Washer, Dryer and dishwasher for £750?
What about a Bosch Washerdryer – saving money and space
just looked at John Lewis and they have a mid range (Exxcel) model as the cheapest at £487 – great when shops muddle up like this and price the better model lower! 😀
Possibly its last years model but who cares it’ll be brand new to you!use it for drying just occasionally and hang up washing to dry where possible outdoors / indoors.
Not sure about a dryer in a cupboard – you may keep the door open but others may not and it may overheat.
Don’t know anything about dishwashers!

Re: Hot and cold fill
I remember my parents used to say something like fill on 1 then wash on 4 on their hotpoint toploader. What I mean is they put it on the hottest to force the machine to take in hot only, then washed on a medium temp. If you put it on medium temp to start with it took in hot and cold together and electrically heated it a bit.
I think the same happens (or rather happened!) on the more recent machines – they err on the cold side when filling, then heat it up. The designers assume your water is an evil 80 degC and seem to allow as little of the nasty hot water in as possible!
I thought of connecting my trusty Servis M9303 Washer dryer (with hot and cold fill) to the hot only (via the cold inlet) as our water is only 40 – 50 degC, but then I realised its gonna end up doing hot rinses as well!!Tim
